Not all blue chicks are created equal. Or dressed up as in an equally hot way. It's true. I know, I know. BLUE CHICKS ARE HOT! Believe you me, I've spent a little bit of time cruising the internet for you, my loyal readers, and I am here to tell you that Blue Chicks are Hot.

Featured Artist- Warren Louw
on FacebookdeviantART
The above picture, done by our featured Artist of the Month for May, is Alandra from Castle Age. Warren is a graphic designer from South Africa. He's a pretty cool sounding guy who appreciates what he does and seems like he really enjoys creating great art for us. In the artist's words:

This was completed just over a year ago, so Im totally happy I can finally share this! Working for the guys at Phoenix Age has been a an awesome experience since Im actually getting to do art with backgrounds. Who knew it would be so much fun!

I originally found Warren Louw through his amazing Emma Frost. He definitely skimps her down on her costume - I don't know if she lost a bet, or is stuck in one of those dreams where you wake up at the Hellfire Club and realize you're wearing nothing but your underwear.

Of course, we won't hold it against him. Although I really wonder why an Ice Queen isn't portrayed as blue. Sure, she's the "White Queen" and all, but seriously. Ice = cold = blue skinned and chattering teeth. Right? I guess maybe I should hire someone to do up Emma "Blue for you" Frost. But in the meantime, I'll keep on with some of Warren's other works.

So next up is Felicia. Yeah, a cat woman. A samurai cat woman. Or maybe she's a rat woman. Or a bunny? Nah, ears are too short. Again, skimping on the clothing angle to wonderfully delightful effect. And the best part of this picture? A full moon and a half moon in the same picture.

And wicked wolf in the background. Although she also does not have blue skin, I figured the blue hair was worthy of addition in Warren's stable.

Now a couple of "mundane" chicks. And here is what I fell in love with. Subtly, with the assistance of some special lighting, Jinnyeh captures the essence of Blue Chicks. This beauty is staying in my "favorites" category for quite a while, I reckon.

Jinnyeh. Maybe more of a purple girl.

Jinny without the Blue Light Special

Now, I highly recommend you check out Warren's deviantART site, because this small selection doesn't do him justice. He's got a bunch of super hot chicks, along with some cool other artwork as well. I was planning on leaving you with 2 more images to whet your appetite, but I couldn't narrow it down, so here's: Gia, Caroline, Megan (yes, the Fox), and Yummy. Er, scratch the "yummy". It's Baby Doll from Sucker Punch. (Sucker Punch? I hardly know her!)

(And for those keeping track, I really just did this post on 5/11/12 and backdated it because I slacked for about a year. I love me the internet and it's tricky time-keeping magic)

Seriously? Another fashion model? You betcha. Now, I'm not going to say I ever had a subscription to Elle or Harper's Bazaar. I'm not saying I ever leafed through a Cosmo or an Allure magazine. But I ain't saying I never had a Playboy collection, either. Anyway.

Laura Ponte is an old favorite of mine. And as always with these models, eventually they do some off the wall bizarre ad campaign where they are dressed up like Supreme Being Zombies (or maybe Ronald McDonald's daughter Zombie). Or other strange and fancifully sexy costumes.

"Really? Am I an Aries?"

Sure, she does regular ad type stuff too. But she's still hot as a civilian. She even makes me want to pick up an orange mini for my collection. Er, I mean, my hot fashion model girlfriend's collection of skimpy clothes.

but the Undressing might cost a little more...

Don't worry, it's fake fur.

And this last is my favorite pic of Laura. She always strikes me as some wicked villainess from a fantasy novel or an episode of Firefly. Great, shouldn't have mentioned that. Now I'm imaging her and Morena Baccarin making out...

Not the Indian goddess (although the Indian goddess Shiva is actually both male and female, like the Asari, I guess. Not sure what this hermaphroditic blue skinned thread means, nor why I noticed it. Anyway, back to the commentary before I say too much...). This is Shiva from the super popular game series Final Fantasy.

This chicky is bad ass, apparently. I've never played the game in any form so I can't really comment on it, and I am not quite sure if she's a good guy or a bad guy. I guess at the end of the day it doesn't really matter, because a blue (or purple) skinned half naked bad ass video game girl doesn't need something like "sides" holding us back from appreciating her for her true hotness.

One of her classics. Classic "Huh?" movies, that is. You thought the threat in The Phantom Menace was obscure, well figuring out why anyone made this movie with Natalie in the role of a stripper in a purple wig just makes me scratch my head and go "Huh?". Kind of like Garden State. Sure, you get to see her in her underwear jumping into a pool, but the other 101 minutes is unfortunately counted amongst the time I will never get back in my life.

But I can feel a big digression coming on that would lead us to other Really Great Movies like Addicted to Love (the only bad movie Meg Ryan did until she turned into a cheating so-and-so (family blog!) and left Dennis Quaid. Seriously. She was perfect before she became a cradle robbing tramp. Now I can never look at her the same.). So I'll stop now and keep talking about Natalie Portman in Closer.

Purple haired stripper. All you need to know.

But not even the good kind of stripper that actually, well, strips it all off.

Well, I guess there's not much more to be said. Natalie did the whole Padme thing, and I'll be featuring her in an upcoming compilation of hot colored women from Star Wars (or just hot women, I haven't decided yet), so I won't be posting any pics of her in her white makeup just yet.

Here's a couple of other great shots from a fashion magazine. The first one is, well, I'm not sure what it is.And the second shot is apparently some sort of 8-bit seductress look.

If Rihanna was the last girl on Earth, and she was purple, would you do her?

Duh.

Now, I don't hold truck with today's pop musicians. I couldn't tell you what her music sounded like, or what her videos were like, but when I came across this picture of her (...) I just had to share.

I tried uploading a video of her to the BCAH Youtube, but her lawyers gave me a cease and desist (it was from some show in South America where she was purple on stage) so if you must see her dancing around all purple, find her yourself. The whole episode kind of put me off big stars and their fancypants lawsuits. I was debating even posting this after that happened, but I am short of blue chicks this week so here ya go.

This is the guy who ruins the Fairy Tales for ya. Yep, you'll never see Alice again without thinking about J. Scott Campbell's Alice. Or The Wicked Witch. Or The Little Mermaid. This is the guy who dresses them up as they should be - hot, sleek and ready to do Never Never Land. Or is that Never Never..., oh, never mind. You get the idea. So without further ado, here are a couple of beauts.

Alice in Wonderland. I wish I was that mushroom.

The Wicked Witch of OMGoz

The Little *ahem*maid

Besides ruining the above fairy tales for you, J Scott also will ruin a couple of your favorite already-hot hotties if you're not careful. How many of us have lusted after Mary Jane? And appreciated Todd for his amazing rendition, along with Erik Larsen? And yeah, I have to admit, I'm a sucker for Kirsten Dunst and even though she ain't a natural redhead, she did a fair job of pulling off MJ.

But...guh.

Crime, I'm afraid you're going to have to wait when I'm Spider-Man

And she's been done so many times and in so many ways...but I had to share this version with you.

Not your daddy's Slave Princess Leia. I wonder how many young boys would have imploded in 1983 if this was what Lucas dished up to us. Times have changed, indeed. Thankfully! So another one he's done that isn't going to ruin her, is Jessica Rabbit. And I guess in his version she counts as a red chick?

So anyway, I am so in love with this guy's art that I don't even really care who he is. Go look him up if you want more. And trust me, you want more.

The hot female counterpart to the Hulk. Bush ain't the only one who know something about preemptive strikes. In 1980, Stan Lee and Marvel decided to publish their own She-Hulk in case the TV Network showing The Incredible Hulk decided to go all Lindsey Wagner on them and come up with a She-Hulk that Marvel couldn't control. So in this day and age, it was inevitable, like Super Girl and all the other poor female characters who owe their existence to their male counterpart. I want to make a character named Man-Man so when the TV show spins off they have to name their hero "Man-Woman". It could cater to a whole slew of new readers waiting for their hero(ine) to come along. But I digress.

"Why Bruce! That IS Incredible"

So I guess they wanted to make sure they never had to delve into the whole "Hulk and She-Hulk should totally hook up!" meme that would inevitably ensue in every geek forum from here to a certain nuclear testing ground. So they made the new and improved, female version of the Hulk into Bruce Banner's cousin. NON-kissing cousin, my friends in the south. She got shot by a crime boss (pesky crime bosses, always creating new super heroes by mistake), and Bruce happened to be in town (pesky coincidences, always moving the plot forward...). So he transfused his blood to save her life, and voila! She-hulk was "born".

So should Bruce Banner go to jail for knowingly passing his blood, in full tainted condition, to someone else?

Anyway, She-Hulk went on to battle lots of foes and acquit herself worth of being a super-hero in her own right, male-derived pseudonym notwithstanding.

I waiting for the "What If?" story where Jennifer and Bruce don't know they are cousins when he gives her the transfusion. They could hire George to write that one.

She-Man? Spider-Hulk?

Anyway, She-Hulk is one of those better known babes, so there's lots of happy images of her in skimpy clothes all over the web. This is just a taste for ya. Hope you enjoyed!
